Cost rental housing provides affordable rented accommodation to people on middle incomes. It is aimed at people who are above the threshold for social housing but have difficulty affording private rented accommodation. It is called “cost rental” because the rent you pay is based on the cost of building, managing, and maintaining the homes.

This makes the rent cheaper than standard rents. The rent for cost rental homes will be at least 25% below regular market rents in an area.

Waterford City and County Council is currently seeking expressions of interest from people who wish to avail of Cost Rental options in Dungarvan and Abbeyside, Co. Waterford.
